Abstract

The dynamic process of mesocotyl elongation of weedy rice was observed in a germination test in a constant temperature incubator in darkness. The changes in amylase activities in embryos and soluble sugar contents in the process of mesocotyl elongation and their relationship were analyzed. The results showed that during the first  three days after germination in darkness, the mesocotyl elongation rate was  very slow and accelerated four and five days after germination. The mesocotyl elongation gradually stopped seven days after germination.    The mesocotyl of the weedy rice was significantly longer than that of Liaojing 294. In the germination process of weedy rice,   soluble sugar contents followed an increasing trend, together with αamylase activity and βamylase activity. Mesocotyl elongation length    was significantly correlated with the αamylase activity, βamylase activity and soluble sugar contents. The enhanced  amylase activities in the beginning of weedy rice germination promoted starch degradation,  supplying material and energy for mesocotyl elengation.
